Trick of the Light is an award-winning theatre company from Wellington, NZ founded by Hannah Smith and Ralph McCubbin Howell. We like to make theatre that is playful, inventive, thought-provoking, and that speaks to the here and now. Previous works include The Road That Wasn’t There (Production of the Year – Wellington Theatre Awards 2013; Children’s Event Award – Fringe World, Perth 2016; Best Children’s Event – Adelaide Fringe 2016), Tröll (Outstanding Theatre Award – Fringe Review, Edinburgh, 2019); and The Bookbinder (Best of the Fringe – NZ Fringe 2014, International Excellence Award – Sydney Fringe Festival 2014, Children’s Theatre Award – Fringe World, Perth 2015) — a solo show which has toured across NZ, Australia, Canada, the UK, USA, and South Africa, from sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe to the attic of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s oldest bookbindery.
